My complaint was not that there was product on the pegs, it was that there were no Lokis, Hawkeyes, or Hulks to be found.

VI, VII you know what I meant!  I think they could make a pretty quick-and-dirty MK VII just by repainting the War Machine figure into red & gold. It's bulky enough, and we know Hasbro hate to use new tooling if they can avoid it. So, what are the odds of getting the sleeveless Thor that was shown a while back? Or Black Widow? Or Agent Coulson? They could do another wave of these, easily.

So, I'm guessing there will be no second wave of the Wal-mart Avengers movie figures? Nothing was shown, at least that i saw, at sdcc, was there? I was really hoping for a Nick Fury and Black Widow. I go moc, so the captain america nick fury isnt really what i want. It'd be cool if they did some sheild 2 packs, like Black Widow and Bruce Banner, Coulson and Pepper and Fury and Stark or any of them in singles, but I guess that isnt happening. Somebody tell me I'm wrong, please.

It looks like it is over with no Black Widow (for now). Too bad. I love how Walmart kept and released new figures with their, "How To Train Your Dragon," line. Different toy company though.

Getting a Black Widow and Fury repack was possible (and I guess still is...maybe in an exclusive 2-pack somewhere down the line, or as part of the Iron Man 3 Legends series), but a full , continuing lline was always a pipe dream. Hasbro hasn't shown much desire to put that kind of weight behind any of the 6" movie lines. Nor have stores seemed overly excited about stocking them, seeing as how every one of them ends up as Walmart exclusives.

I don't think you'll see Widow in an IM3 line, since she's not going to be in the movie.

Marvel Select line would seem hypothetical for a Black Widow, I mean they did make Hulk and Hawkeye. So naturally I assume picking up Widow for the line would seem reasonable. They did stand alone movie for Captain America and Iron Man and Thor as well. So who's last in line???

I have to wonder, is that it? Did they fizzle out that quickly?? My Walmart maybe got 3 cases of the 6" Avengers and that's it. All we have now is 8 Iron Man figures hanging on the pegs. And I haven't noticed any new ones at any other Walmart stores. I really thought with the popularity of the movie, Hasbro was gonna pile these things on.
